Book
Where Passion Leads
First published 1987
A young Englishwoman is drawn into the orbit of an aristocratic adventurer whose wealth and confidence give him far more control over their relationship than she possesses. Travel, separation, family opposition and concealed motives turn attraction into a volatile contest over trust and independence.
Lisa Kleypas’s debut belongs to the expansive historical-romance tradition of the 1980s, using Regency Europe as the setting for abduction, pursuit and eventual reconciliation. It is most useful historically as a portrait of the genre’s changing conventions rather than as a reconstruction of a specific public event.
